iPhone XS 64GB
Simply put, the XS is the most advanced Apple iPhone ever made!
The Bionic Phone
Apple calls the A12 Bionic, the chip used in the XS, "the most powerful chip in a smartphone". Meanwhile, the Neural Engine uses real-time machine learning to transform the way you experience photos, gaming, augmented reality and more. The two performance cores operate up to 15% faster while the four efficiency ones use up to 50% less power. As for graphics performance: it's up to 50% faster. What does all this tell you? That the XS operates at a far higher level than we've ever seen.
Seeing is disbelieving
The custom-engineered Super Retina OLED display is unbelievably stunning. OLED panels deliver the industry’s best colour accuracy, alongside true blacks and brightness and contrast that reaches new heights. Expect the sharpest displays with the highest pixel density on any Apple device.
A camera breakthrough
Apple is excited about Smart HDR which merges different technologies including faster sensors, an enhanced ISP and advanced algorithms, and the power of A12 Bionic and the Neural Engine. This means vastly superior shots in all settings and for all requirements: selfies, portraits, action shots, landscapes and more are captured in spectacular ways. Smart HDR shoots a 4-frame buffer in between each image, and also captures secondary images at different exposures. All these are combined to create the perfect image.
Brilliantly simple
Great phones should be easy to use and the XS fits the bill. The glass back allows for wireless and fast charging, while Face ID not only offers quick access to whatever you need but also uses advanced machine learning to recognise changes in your appearance.
A newer model iPhone 11 Pro 64GB was released in September 2019.

iPhone XS Review: The Best iPhone Ever
The iPhone XS launched earlier last month to huge fanfare, as is usual for an iPhone launch, and to nobody's surprise it looks pretty much the same as the iPhone X (apart from one physical difference). I've been using the iPhone XS ( starts at Rs.- Great cameras
- Stereo speakers are loud and amazing
- Beautiful display with HDR10 and Dolby Vision
- Powerful performance
- Dual SIM
- Excellent build quality
- Extremely pricey at a starting price of Rs
- 99,900, No fast charger in the box, and the bundled charger is an atrocity beyond words, Some apps are still not optimised for the notched bezel-less display, Beauty Gate, Notch (but that's subjective, I guess
Apple iPhone XS review: The luxury-upgrade iPhone
While we'd still recommend the iPhone XR first, the XS has some extras worth noting. Update, April 22: Read our iPhone SE 2020 review. Original story follows.- The iPhone XS has a markedly improved dual camera, delivering better photos than the iPhone X in both dark and high-contrast environments
- It has a faster processor, faster face ID, adds dual-SIM support and it’s now available in gold and 512GB versions.
- Its battery life is the shortest of the three new iPhones and only incrementally better than last year's
- Despite its still-rich price tag, increased storage, USB-C fast chargers and headphone dongles will have you spending even more.
iPhone XS review
This is the iPhone XS – pronounced ‘10-S', not ‘excess' as you might think. It looks identical to last year's iPhone X , and you might think that not a lot has changed – but it's inside where the differences lie.- Smart HDR helps the camera
- More powerful again
- Fast operation in the hand
- Battery life not world-beating
- Design not altered in a year
- Still very expensive
iPhone XS review: There's nothing excessive about Apple's latest and greatest smartphone
Apple's new iPhone XS is a modest step up from last year's iPhone X, but remains a major technological leap forward for anyone who hasn't yet made the jump to the edge-to-edge design with Face ID.
Apple iPhone Xs
Announced in September 2018, the iPhone XS (and iPhone XS Max) made its debut roughly a year after the iPhone X. It represents a fairly modest update from its predecessor, but in terms of the camera there has been some interesting improvements.
iPhone XS review: a brief foray into the Apple universe
There are many great smartphones on the market and the iPhone XS is certainly one of them. Apple does a lot of things differently from Samsung, Huawei and co., but 'different' doesn't necessarily mean better.- Handy size
- Perfect craftsmanship
- Great display
- Very good camera
- Average battery
- Performs slower than expected
- Illogical UI
iPhone XS review
The iPhone XS is the sweet spot in the 2018 iPhone line-up. As with the X, you get a big, bright, 3D Touch-equipped OLED screen within a superbly portable chassis - it's big but not too big - and a dual camera; you can now add a small speed bump, better future-proofing and a far smarter camera setup - we love being able to adjust the bokeh effect of Portrait Mode shots afterwards, and camera performance is demonstrably better under various types of difficult lighting. The XS is super-fast, looks wonderful, and is a pleasure to use. This is a terrific choice for those upgrading from a pre-X iPhone, and particularly (in our view) from one of the older Plus models like the 7 or 6s - provided you can find one in stock.
Apple iPhone XS (64GB, Silver) - Excellent review
To be clear, the iPhone XS is every bit as good as the iPhone XS Max, save for battery life. It delivers on Apple's (now yearly) promise of being the best iPhone ever.- Smooth performance, Amazing camera
- Mediocre battery life
Apple iPhone XS review: The safe update
When Tim Cook revealed the iPhone X in 2017 , the Apple CEO announced that this was the new direction for iPhone, the foundation of the next 10 years. Fulfilling that promise, Apple's new iPhones build on what the iPhone X started.- Faster processor
- New camera features
- Tougher glass build
- Design hasn't changed
- Not a necessary upgrade for iPhone X users
- No fast charger in the box
If you didn't like the iPhone X and its notched face, there's very little about iPhone XS that'll change your mind. If you were interested in iPhone X but weren't ready to take the risk - or front the cost - on the first iteration, then the second generation has a lot to offer.
